Treatments

Specialised care and treatments offered

POLYPECTOMY DURING COLONOSCOPY

Polypectomy During Colonoscopy

A polypectomy involves the removal of polyps found during colonoscopy before they have chance to develop into cancerous lesions. It's a preventive step critical in colorectal health maintenance especially for individuals at risk due to age or family history.

HELICOBACTER PYLORI BREATH TEST

Helicobacter pylori Breath Test

This breath test detects Helicobacter pylori infection—a common bacterial cause behind peptic ulcers and gastritis—without invasive procedures. It’s a simple yet highly accurate diagnostic tool guiding eradication treatment decisions.

    ESOPHAGEAL MANOMETRY

    Esophageal Manometry

    This test measures how well your esophagus muscles work to move food toward your stomach. It's important for diagnosing motility disorders such as achalasia or diffuse esophageal spasm which affect swallowing and cause chest pain.

    • Symptoms/causes: Indicated when patients experience difficulty swallowing, chest discomfort unrelated to heart problems, or regurgitation sensations.
    • Diagnosis: A thin catheter with pressure sensors is passed through the nose into the esophagus measuring muscle contractions during swallowing.
    • Treatment/management: Identifying motility issues helps tailor dietary advice, medications or plan interventions like pneumatic dilation or surgery if needed.
    • What to expect: Minimal discomfort during catheter insertion; test duration around 30 minutes typically done on an outpatient basis.

    This functional assessment provides crucial insights into esophageal behavior assisting effective symptom relief strategies.

    CAPSULE ENDOSCOPY

    Capsule Endoscopy

    Capsule endoscopy offers a non-invasive way to visualize parts of the small intestine unreachable by traditional scopes. Patients swallow a small camera capsule that captures thousands of images as it travels through the digestive tract.

    • Symptoms/causes: Used primarily when investigating unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding or chronic abdominal pain without clear cause from other tests.
    • Diagnosis: The images are wirelessly transmitted and reviewed by specialists to identify sources of bleeding, inflammation, or tumors.
    • Treatment/management: This diagnostic method aids in directing targeted therapy once abnormalities are located.
    • What to expect: The capsule passes naturally with stools within 24-48 hours; there is no discomfort during its passage through the body.

    Certainly a patient-friendly option when thorough evaluation of the small bowel is required beyond standard scopes' reach.

    COLONOSCOPY SCREENING

    Colonoscopy Screening

    Colonoscopy is a diagnostic and screening tool used to inspect the interior lining of the large intestine for abnormalities. Early detection of polyps or colorectal cancer significantly improves treatment success rates.

    • Symptoms/causes: Recommended for patients with symptoms like rectal bleeding or changes in bowel habits, or for routine screening after age 50.
    • Diagnosis: A long flexible scope examines the entire colon; suspicious growths can be biopsied or removed during the procedure.
    • Treatment/management: Polyps detected can often be removed immediately, preventing progression to cancer; findings also guide medical therapy if inflammation is present.
    • What to expect: Preparation includes bowel cleansing; sedation ensures patient comfort during this outpatient procedure.

    This approach remains a cornerstone in preventing colorectal cancer by allowing intervention at precancerous stages.

    UPPER GASTROINTESTINAL ENDOSCOPY

    Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

    An Upper Gastrointestinal (GI) Endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the lining of the upper digestive tract. This includes the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. It helps in detecting abnormalities such as inflammation, ulcers, and tumors.

    • Symptoms/causes: Common indications include persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, unexplained abdominal pain, or bleeding.
    • Diagnosis: A thin flexible tube with a camera is gently inserted through the mouth to visualize and sometimes biopsy suspicious areas.
    • Treatment/management: The procedure can guide treatment decisions for conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), infections, or celiac disease.
    • What to expect: Usually performed on an outpatient basis under mild sedation; recovery is quick with minimal discomfort.

    This investigation plays a crucial role in early detection and management of upper GI diseases, enabling tailored treatments that improve patient outcomes.
